Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a braking device for trailers of agricultural machines.
  • the towing vehicles are connected to their respective trailer by means of a connection device that allows placing the respective braking systems in communication to one another, in such a way that the braking of the towing vehicle operated by the operator also causes the braking of the towed trailer.
  • the braking system of the trailer is therefore driven by the braking system of the tractor in order to synchronize the braking forces acting on the same.
  • GB 2 492 124 A discloses a vehicle braking system having an electrically operable emergency braking override valve for avoiding the emergency brake applying valve from being vented.
  • connection device between the towing vehicle and its trailer must comprise a portion connectable to the trailer and having a pair of female couplings intended to receive the corresponding male couplings connectable to the towing vehicle.
  • first female coupling communicating with a control line connectable to the braking system of the trailer and a second female coupling communicating with an additional line connectable to the parking and/or automatic brake of the trailer itself.
  • the additional line is therefore the line that allows applying the on-off braking of the trailer in the case of an emergency, or in the case of detachment of the trailer from the towing vehicle.
  • the main aim of the present invention is to provide a braking device for trailers of agricultural machines, which allows the use of automatic and/or parking brakes with springs on any type of trailer and irrespectively of the connections present on the corresponding towing vehicle.
  • one object of the present invention is to permit the manual release of the automatic and/or parking brake even when the towing vehicle is not connected to the corresponding trailer.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a braking device for trailers of agricultural machines which allows to overcome the mentioned drawbacks of the prior art within the ambit of a simple, rational, easy, effective to use and affordable solution.
  • reference numeral 1 globally indicates a braking device for trailers of agricultural machines.
  • the device 1 connectable to the trailer of an agricultural machine or other operating machine, comprises a first and a second female coupling, schematized in the figures by the reference numbers 2 and 3, associable with a trailer and adapted to receive related male couplings, schematized in the figures by the reference numbers 4 and 5, associable with a towing vehicle and adapted to send a pressurized fluid inside the respective female couplings.
  • the device 1 then comprises at least one control line 6 communicating with the first female coupling 2 and connectable to the braking system F of the trailer, at least one additional line 7 communicating with the second female coupling 3 and connectable to the automatic and/or parking brake G of the trailer.
  • the device 1 also comprises at least one auxiliary line 8 connectable to the additional line 7 following the detachment of the second female coupling 3 from its male coupling 5.
  • first valve means 9 are adapted to isolate and place in communication the additional line 7 with the auxiliary line 8 following the coupling and the uncoupling, respectively, of the second female coupling 3 from its male coupling 5.
  • the auxiliary line 8 is connected to the control line 6 by means of second one-way valve means 10 adapted to allow only the outflow of the working fluid from the auxiliary line 8 to the control line 6 following a pressure difference between them.
  • the device 1 comprises, therefore, also a command device 11 of the automatic and/or parking brake G.
  • the command device 11 comprises first elastic means 12 adapted to activate the automatic and/or parking brake G and at least one fluid-operated cylinder 13 adapted to interact with the first elastic means themselves.
  • the first elastic means 12 are adapted to actuate the command of the automatic and/or parking brake G for the activation of the same.
  • the cylinder 13 in turn comprises a body 13a inside which is housed in a sliding manner one rod 13b, which interacts with the first elastic means 12 and on which at least a first chamber 14 operates in contrast to the action of first elastic means 12 to cause the release of the automatic and/or parking brake G.
  • the cylinder 13 also comprises a second chamber 15, which operates on the rod 13b on the opposite side of the first chamber 14, or in the same direction as the action of the first elastic means 12.
  • the cylinder 13 is of the double-acting type and the operational surfaces of the rod 13b facing the chambers 14 and 15 are substantially equal to each other.
  • the cylinder 13 is connected in a fluid-operated manner to the service braking system F of the trailer.
  • the automatic and/or parking brake G also performs the service brake function.
  • the rod 13b comprises a first and a second portion, respectively identified with the reference numbers 13b' and 13b", movable reciprocally between them.
  • the first portion 13b' is adapted to interact with the first elastic means 12 depending on the pressure present in the chambers 14, 15, and a second portion 13b" is adapted to interact with the automatic and/or parking brake G to command the activation/deactivation thereof and activate also the service braking.
  • a third chamber 22 communicating with the control line 6 and adapted to move the second portion 13b" to command the activation of the automatic and/or parking brake G (which, as mentioned above, operates in this embodiment also as a service brake) following the increase in pressure along said control line 6.
  • the third chamber 22 is placed in communication with the control line 6 through a canal 23 formed in the first portion 13b'. It follows, therefore, that in this second embodiment, the automatic and/or parking brake G, which also operates as a service brake, is activated following the increase in pressure along the control line 6 irrespective of the pressure present in the chambers 14 and 15.
  • a valve 16 which has a spool 17 movable between a normal operation configuration, in which it places the first chamber 14 in communication with the additional line 7 and the second chamber 15 with a lower pressure line so as to allow draining the working fluid contained in it and permit the deactivation of the automatic and/or parking brake G, and a braking configuration, in which it places the first and the second chamber 14, 15 in communication between them, so as to make ineffective the action of the rod 13b (which is therefore floating) on the first elastic means 12 which by expanding activate the automatic and/or parking brake G.
  • the second chamber 15 in the normal operation configuration, is placed in communication with the auxiliary line 8, so that the working fluid contained therein drains along the control line 6, via the second valve means 10, when this is at a lower pressure, while in the braking configuration, both chambers 14, 15 are placed in communication with the auxiliary line 8.
  • valve 16 comprises a body 18 which defines a seat 19 inside which the spool 17 is housed in a sliding manner.
  • the seat 19 has four openings communicating with the additional line 7, with the auxiliary line 8, with the first chamber 14 and with the second chamber 15, respectively.
  • spool 17 On the spool 17 operate two compartments, opposite to one another, for example defined inside the seat 19 between the ending parts of the spool itself and the body 18, of which a first compartment 19a placed in communication with the additional line 7 and adapted to push the spool 17 towards the normal operation configuration and a second compartment 19b, inside which are housed second elastic means 20, operating in a direction opposite to the first compartment 19a.
  • the second compartment 19b is placed in communication with the auxiliary line 8, to drain and receive the working fluid, which operates therefore on the spool 17 in the same direction as the action exerted by the second elastic means 20.
  • the spool 17 is therefore adapted to move towards the normal operation configuration following the connection of the female couplings 2, 3 to the corresponding male couplings 4, 5 and the pressurization of the additional line 7 and to move towards the braking configuration following the uncoupling between them, in such case the connection occurring between the additional line 7 and the auxiliary line 8 by means of the first valve means 9 and, therefore, the connection between the compartments 19a and 19b.
  • the spool 17 is adapted to substantially move the same volume of working fluid in both directions.
  • the device 1 comprises pumping means 21 interposed between the command device 11 and the valve 16, which are manually operable to supply the first chamber 14 of the cylinder 13 so as to release the automatic and/or parking brake G even when the trailer is detached from the towing vehicle.
  • the pumping means 21 are of the double acting type, while in the embodiments of Figures 4 and 5 , the pumping means 21 are of the single acting type.
  • a supply/drain channel 25 interposed between the valve 16 and the command device 11 and arranged in parallel to the pumping means 21.
  • the supply/drain channel 25 allows the inflow and outflow of the working fluid from the first chamber 14 towards the valve 16 following the attachment and the detachment, respectively, of the trailer from the towing vehicle and, therefore, the connection between the additional line 7 and the auxiliary line 8.
  • a valve device 26 manually operable to move it from an open configuration, in which it allows the passage of the working fluid, to a closed configuration, in which it prevents the passage of the working fluid.
  • valve device 26 is brought to the closed configuration when the second female coupling 3 is separated from its male coupling 5 and there is the need to pressurize the first chamber 14 to compress the first elastic means 12 and thus release the automatic and/or parking brake G.
  • the valve device 26 By bringing the valve device 26 to the closed configuration it is in fact possible to supply the first chamber 14 by means of the pumping means 21.
  • the valve device 26 comprises opening means, e.g. of the spring type, (not visible in detail in the figures) operatively connected to the additional line 7 and adapted to return the valve device itself from the closed configuration to the open configuration upon reaching a predefined pressure of the working fluid along the additional line 7.
  • opening means e.g. of the spring type, (not visible in detail in the figures) operatively connected to the additional line 7 and adapted to return the valve device itself from the closed configuration to the open configuration upon reaching a predefined pressure of the working fluid along the additional line 7.
  • valve device 26 can be operable automatically following the accidental detachment of the trailer from the towing vehicle, or following the detachment of the female couplings 2, 3 from the relative male couplings 4, 5.
  • the operation of the present invention is as follows.
  • the additional line 7 receives the working fluid under pressure, between 15 bar and 35 bar, and the first valve means 9 isolate the additional line itself from the auxiliary line 8.
  • the working fluid coming from the additional line 7 enters therefore the first chamber 14 of the cylinder 13 so as to cause it to move in contrast to the first elastic means 12.
  • the compression of the first elastic means 12 causes the deactivation of the automatic and/or parking brake G.
  • the working fluid in the second chamber 15 of the cylinder 13 and in the second compartment 19b flows out through the auxiliary line 8 and drains, via the second valve means 10, on the control line 6 following a pressure difference between the two lines. This pressure difference occurs at least when the pressure of the working fluid that supplies the service braking system F drops to zero.
  • the first valve means 9 change their state by placing the additional line 7 in mutual communication with the auxiliary line 8.
  • the automatic and/or parking brake G is activated following the pressurization of the control line 6, thus operating also as a service brake.
  • the pressurized working fluid present along the control line 6 enters the third chamber 22 by exerting a force on the second portion 13b" so as to push it away from the first portion 13b' and actuate the automatic and/or parking brake G.
  • Figure 5 shows the operation configuration in which the automatic and/or parking brake G which, as discussed above, also performs the function of service brake, is activated due to the effect of the pressure present along the control line 6 despite the valve 16 is in the normal operation configuration and the first elastic means are, therefore, compressed.
  • the described invention achieves the intended objects and in particular the fact is underlined that the braking device making the subject of the present invention allows the use of automatic and/or parking brakes with springs on any trailer, and irrespectively of the type of dual-line braking system of its towing vehicle.
